Reaction
R-CHOH-R′ + NADP+ = R-CO-R′ + NADPH + H+
Systematic Name
secondary-alcohol:NADP+ oxidoreductase
Function
Acts on a wide range of carbonyl compounds, including quinones, aromatic aldehydes, ketoaldehydes, daunorubicin and prostaglandins E and F, reducing them to the corresponding alcohol. Si-specific with respect to NADPH [cf. EC 1.1.1.2 alcohol dehydrogenase (NADP+)].
